KAT Improves Service; More Access to Jobs, Shopping
Knoxville (TN) Area Transit (KAT) recently implemented service improvements on 13 bus routes, including new Sunday service, increased frequencies on Saturdays and later service on many neighborhood routes.
KAT made the changes in response to passenger requests and to respond to capacity issues for its busy Saturday service.
“We are very excited to be starting the new year off right by providing these significant service improvements,” said Dawn Distler, director of transit for the city of Knoxville.
“The later service on neighborhood routes will give people more opportunities to get home from jobs, as well as allowing people who take transit to enjoy the many offerings of our downtown and still catch transit home. New Sunday services to … commercial locations to the northeast will provide great opportunities for both shopping and employment. We couldn’t be more pleased,” she said.
